I'm trying to test run a joke map, but every time I do, it comes up with an error. If I try to continue from there, it opens up TF2, but the map doesn't launch. I originally used a decompiled version of plr_hightower and renamed it. If I name it back to plr_hightower, TF2 just opens up the normal plr_hightower map. Here's the log so you guys can help.

The command failed. Windows reported the error:

I'm not very good at hammer so any advice would be good. Thanks!

Your map has too many brushes so vbsp fails to compile. Reduce the amount and it'll work. The brush in question is just the first mentioned.

Next time post your compile log to http://www.interlopers.net/errors/ . Your issue appears on there and gives a short explanation on how to fix it. Don't forget to do alt-p!

As for me being in that screenshot, nothing appeared in that site and nothing appeared in alt-p, along with searching for threads where people had a similar issue. I couldn't find one. I also asked for help in the steam chat and couldn't get a working solution. That is the only time I think it's appropriate to make a thread.
